Scent of Peril: A Christian Romantic Suspense (Sullivan K9 Search and Rescue Book 3)

When Jessica Sullivan's K9 partner, Teddy, alerts to illegal drugs inside Logan Fletcher's private plane, she isn't surprised—she's been waiting eight years to prove this man's guilt.

As a skilled search-and-rescue handler, Jessica trusts Teddy's nose above all else. And Logan Fletcher is no innocent bystander in her mind. She holds him responsible for her best friend Ella's fatal overdose, and this discovery feels like the confirmation she's been carrying in her heart since the day she buried Ella. Logan, for his part, swears he's clean—and that someone is setting him up.

Before Jessica can decide whether to believe him, bullets shatter the mountain air during what should have been a routine trail excursion. Then Logan's aircraft is targeted in a deliberate act of sabotage. Suddenly, the evidence points not to Logan's guilt, but to a sprawling, deadly conspiracy that has both of them squarely in the crosshairs.

In this gripping Christian romantic suspense set against the rugged backdrop of wilderness search-and-rescue operations, Jessica and Logan must confront long-buried resentments, half-truths, and the question of whether faith can survive the weight of grief and blame. As Teddy tracks danger through mountain terrain, Jessica finds herself tracking something even more unsettling—the possibility that the man she despised might be the only one she can trust.

With every page turn, the stakes climb higher. The truth about Ella's death is out there—and someone is willing to kill to keep it buried.
